Jordan is playing extremely well but I wouldn't be mad if he doesnt play many meaningful minutes, Dwight is doing well at C, Pau is a Center so you have to give him a look there, Jamison has been fantastic as a stretch 4...its not that Hill is not good enough its just that we have better players who need minutes in that position. It is a very long season I hope Hill doesnt get discouraged and loses his intensity we're gonna need him over the course of the season here and there...its good to know that when Pau or Howard get into foul trouble you can count on Hill. That is a huge plus

sounds a lot more like a championship level team with much more balance.

IMO Hill is going to have to be traded. He's probably our best trade piece given contract, age, impact. While we'd all love to see him get more mins, Dwight/Pau/Jamison is teh rotation and it makes perfect sense. we won our rings with Bynum/Pau/LO. This is better version of that. Sign Kenyon as a extra body and great defender/enforcer and then Sacre can get very spare mins in case of fould trouble to both Pau and Dwight.

I'm curious as to how Blake will play when he returns, but having a lighting quick PG who can probe/attack/create off of penetration is exactly what this team needs. If he could be a good defender, all the better. But I think it's clear Hill is going to be the odd man out and given that Kenyon is available and cheap, I think moving Hill for the 6th man level pg would do wonders. Meeks will find easy buckets off of that, Jamison can flourish, and Pau get's to play mins at C where he can still be a big factor.

thats not my intention, but its just to show that every coach out there has a way of overlooking productive players, I said I would hope antoni would see the benefits of playing Hill more, I know it probably gona go back to the way it was once Pau comes back, oh well wasted talent I suppose.
